Hi Chris,
Cool.. I was not having much luck with the suse gcc
package. Let alone finding out what they did. As soon
as I am up to date on the syncing, I'll upgrade my
packages and then install your gcc with the debian
patches. I'll then try to recompile things and try to
track down what the problem is. Luckily, C++ is the
one programming language that I'm very familiar with.
I'll do a sync tonight and then get caught up
tomorrow.
